The hike was amazing with breath taking views. Our guides were lovely, very friendly and helpful. We were blessed with good windy weather, and even saw wild camels. It was one of my best experiences in Dubai. I will definitely book again with them when I'm back in Dubai. Thank you again Alpine Trekkers !
